Checking In – Sleepy Time

Smoothie 1

Starting Weight: 264
Last Week: 224
This Week: 224

Pounds Lost: 40

Another week and not change in my weight.

Considering the somewhat wild week I had last week (combined with pre-TOM week), I am more than okay with that. I did some silly things, but I had fun.

And now it’s time to get a bit more serious.

I’ve started getting into green smoothies because, if nothing else, they help me get more greens than I would usually. I love veggies, but I just can’t eat that much. These smoothies may taste a bit different, but I get a better serving of fruit and vege in these shakes than I probably have had in a long time.

At this point I am just throwing my favourite fruit and vege together, so I’ll take a picture of every smoothie I make. The one above is from yesterday.

Let’s all pause and give kudos to my husband for being willing to give this a go despite the green colour.

The title is sleepy time because fatigue is trying to drag me down this week already. I’ve boosted my vitamins to help, but I’m convinced that I need a different, gentler formula of birth control.

I know, I know. I hate birth control and I hate being on it, but the weight I have lost so far has not helped me in being able to have a normally functioning reproductive system.

And I suddenly have the thought that maybe I’m sharing too much. Maybe the people who come across this just don’t want to know this about me.

Eh, I don’t know. It’s too late for me to worry about it, I reckon. If you’re insulted or put off, well – stop reading.

With much love,

JM
